Hi Mega, you may be asking as you’ve stumbled into a feature on the site that’s not currently working for some reason..

When you’re on the download page, the genre’s are listed as links and when you click on any of those you’re then taken back to download search page and the search box is prefilled with genre: genrehere. So i’ve just done a search for the amazing Edwin Starr and then clicked on 25 miles acapella and then clicked on the ‘soul’ genre and then when we’re taken back to the search page, it’s not actually displaying any files at all.

So after that long-ass-winded explanation, I think our dev may need to look at this, it’s not an easy one to do it manually so we always planned to use the EchoNest API in order to achieve genre search capabilities here.
